Opinion on  Vivo Participacoes S.A. (VIV)     Sector: Services  >  Industry: Communications Services
Brazil is calling

May 04, 2008 03:47 AM GMT
Return Risk
+3.94% HIGH
Sr. Analyst

VIV recently turned a quarterly profit.  Improving fundamentals and the appeal of a mobile phone play in Brazil may send this ADR to test $10. 

Brazilian equities have had quite a run up but although a pullback is likely, the upward trend for brazilian stocks is likely to continue for several months.
EWZ tracks the Bovespa and is a fine way to play this uptrend.  I am also taking small positions in NETC (CABLE, VOIP), VIV (a cell phone service provider) and SBS (a water utility)
